The journalling is the notes my mother wrote on the back of this photo:

Eden’s costume had a black satin bodice and a red satin tiered skirt trimmed with black lace. Her mantilla was black net and she wore as much of my costume jewellery as she could manage. She was delighted when I allowed her to wear a smudge of my red lipstick. As a special treat we made a non-alcoholic Sangria for the children.

Awesome that you have your Mother's notes on the back of the photo! Great idea to use it as the journalling. Love the sangria in the background with the photo in front. Very artsy. Also really like the Kilroy stamp.

It is a wonderful layout, particularly because of your mother's notes. So many pictures have nothing or just name and dates that little things like the Sangira and lipstick are forgotten (and I suspect that will get worse with digital where you can't even write on the back).
